Writers Kagti, Akhtar and Ayesha Devitre build specificities of the Anglo-Indian community into the narrative.

The movie looks great, it's conceptually interesting, and it has several memorable moments. But it's also interminable.

Rated: 2/4

Without her more serious touch, the incessant glee of Riverdale rubs irritatingly, as does the obvious emotional pandering of the screenplay.

The problem plaguing the film is similar to what affected Akhtar’s previous work, the expansive new season of Made in Heaven. The politics, albeit correct, constantly hangs on the narrative.

The Movie Blog

It’s a simple story about young kids who end up dealing with very adult concepts of capitalism and how they can bring change to the world around them. It may not be for audiences expecting more than that.

Not sure why the movie was made. It seems like it smelled of nepotism in Bollywood. Just 15-20 minutes into the movie and I was like Yuck!!, I don't want to watch this.
